ANorth Carolina Jewel Mine

ST. LOUIS tTIODS- DenOGTaL.
Some years ago Edison, the electric
wizard, was convinced that platinum ex
listed in North Carolina. He sent Wiki
ana Earl Hidden, an accomplished min
eralogist ia search of it. Prof. Hidden
little knew at the time how full of results
to him that pursuit of platinum would be.
He could not find the desired mineral,
bat he found something far better. Be
ing in Alexander county, quiet part of
the state, many miles from a railway, he
was directed by j. A. D. Stephenson to
gem bearing ground, and looking little
more narrowly, found some of the gems.
He purchased some land, returned to
Edison and reported his vain quest of
platinum, then came back to Norm Caro-
lima He went to work to develop his
mine. Sinking shaft in simple way,
he gradually made the opening larger uH-
til specifically the mine presented the
aspect of a stone quarry. Out of this
rude pit in the earth were taken unnum-
bered gems-one hitherto unknown. To
this j. Lawrence Smith of st. Louis, an
eminent scientist, gave Hidden's name
and "Hiddenite," the equivalent of the
diamond in value, became instantly the
fashions Its tender-tinte green crys-
talS, us intense hardness ana It's new
beauties when cut, were only some of its
charms. From the day of its discovery
to the present it has been hopeful task
to supply the demand for it. Every Hid
denite found is already purchased long
in advance. But strange as is this flash
ing green miracle of the earth, the place
of its birth is still stranger. The labor
ers who are working in the mine handle
sheir picks with the greatest care. They
are on the watch for pockets" Pos
sibly for an hour the digging goes on
and no "pocket" is struch. Presently
the pick goes into an opening, with tes-
der fingers the earth is partially removed
and finally the LINER feels with his hands
every portion of the walls of the opening.
1t May happen that his search is in vain,
but it is oftener the case that his fingers
| touch little crystals that are so imbed-
ded in the sides of the pocket that their
points project outward. They are care
fully picked out. Perhaps all are beryls,
perhaps there are a dozen kinds of gems,
or yet again it may be that there are only
Hiddenites. Sometimes gems worth
hundreds of dollars are thus taken from
one pocket.

He Enjoins His Relatives and Friends Not to
Put On Any Emblem of Mourning.
Boston dispatch to The New York
San says: The will of the late Sylvanus
Cobb, Jr, the well-known novelist, has
been filed in Dedham. 1t is in the hand
writing of Mr.. Cobb, and was written thir
teen years ago. It is full of expressions
characteristic of the writer. At the out
set he says:
81 do now, in my health and strength,
knowing how uncertain are the things of
this lower life, and desiring, IN the event
of my falling unex pectedly into the sleep
that knows no earthly waking, that my
worldly affairs may be justly settled, pro-
vide as follows: First, yield my spirit
back to the God who gave it, with full
faith in his eternal goodness. My body,
when it shall be known that life has de-
parted, may be returned TO its mother
earth"
After certain provisions for the widow,
daughters, and grandchild, the instrument
further says: "And I appoint my wife,
Mary Jane, sole executrlx of this my last
will and testament, with full powers to
carry out my desires as herein expressed
according to her judgment and convent
ence: and she shall not be called upon to
give bonds, nor sha she be hampered in
any way. The efforts of her life have been
united with mine in the gaining of our
home, and I thus but render her what is
her due. But ask her, in the event OF
her marrying again, that she shall est
mate the value of the property remaining
in her possession derived from the provis
ions of this instrument, and that she will
before such marriage is cousummated
give to my daughter, Ella Wait, one-third
of said property, and do set it down as
my eI press desire that no member of my
family or relative, or friend, shall for me
put on at any time any outward badge OF
mourning. Let no blackness of Grape OF
weeds cast its gloom upon my memory
1 would that my beloved ones should seek
the brightness and fragrance of faith, ano
trust in God rather than the gloom which
belongs to doubt and unrest. Igo to find
more light. Add ye not to darkness
God bless you ALL"

Surplus Women.
Boston Journal.

Two young women in confidential
mood were overheard By an unsympathet-
ic man as they were discussing some of
the topics dear to feminine analysis. The
first speaker, vino was evidently from the
west, was charging upon the theme of
the surplus of the female population in
Massachusetts and described the state as
a barren region fit only for a starting
point of female emigration. Her COM
panion seemed slightly disturbed at the
criticism of her state, and when the west
ern girl asked in sweet manner, sNow,
how many chances have you for MARI
age?" replied with austerity, 81 never had
any and I haven't any now" The west
ern girl countenance had most plying
expression. and she said sympathetically,
Nov, that is the most pathetic thing
have heard in New England"

REGRET.
BYRON W. KING.

I can see the shadows falling
From the far off lofty height,
7 can hear sweet voices calling
Tn, Ough the solitude of night;
I can hear the "neyerl never u
Ring over the years of Time,
AM know, have lost forever
The i,ys Of hope sublime
The DAYS flow on like river,
And orr JOYS, like flakes of snow,
Sink down and are lost forever
In the wild tumultuous flow:
Childhood begins Lies story,
The Man reads only its cares,
And Age, bowed low and hoary,
Completes it with sorrow and tears.
o voices sweet and olden,
O nards that / claspeG of yore.
Come back in the twilight golden,
l. t me reel our spell as Of yorel
o voices of life. that are sleeping
Where silence hangs broooiHk yet,
Come forth at the sound of our weeping,
Come back at our song of regreti
Peace to the wild complainingl
Let the lips and the heart b. still;
Go, work in the years remaining
With fl mer and holitr will;
Work on, though the darkness cover
The path that hope painted so bright:
Work the heavens are 'rouHd thee and over,
And the stars shine forth in the sight.
Toll on, for if labor is holy
Il crowneth with blessings the brow,
AS Gods fielus and valleys lowIy
Are wrapped 10 HIS mantle of snow.
Toll on, and when evening slumber
With its peace thy spirit ailag,
Then the glorIes of night shall outnumber
The cares that o'er-clouded the day.

BALrIxoRE, Sept. 12.-Cardinal Gibbons
authorizes this statement Of his relations to
the McGlynn case:
Shortly after MS arrival in Rome in Feb

by his holiness to ask DR.. xcGIynn to
come to Rome. The next day the cardinal
complied with the instructions Of the holy
father; but as he did not know DIR. Nc
Glynn's address he wrote to DR.. Burtseil.
because he regarded him as friend Of DIR.
McGlynn. Some weeks later Cardinal
Gibbons received a reply from DR.. Burtseil
giving reasons end excuses why Dr. Nc
Glynn did not go TO Rome. As the answer
from Or. Burtsell was addressed not to Car

himself the latter saw no reason for hand

however. from "suppressing" its contents,
he was very careful 10 communicate them
